News update regarding the Affordable Care Act (ACA)

In the early morning hours of July 28, 2017, the Senate voted 49-51 to reject a “skinny” version of a bill to repeal and replace the ACA, called the Health Care Freedom Act (HCFA). This vote effectively ended the Senate's 20-hour debate period on ACA repeal and replacement legislation. This ACA Compliance Bulletin describes the impact of the Senate's vote.
